IN THIS TED TALK, I CHALLENGE SOCIETAL MYTHS OF BLACK MEN AND THEIR ABILITY TO SUCCEED AGAINST THE ODDS. I THEORIZE THAT IF WE REORIENT THE WAYS WE IDENTIFY BLACK MALE SUCCESS WE CAN ENHANCE OUR PERCEPTIONS OF THEM AND THEIR ROADBLOCKS TO SUCCESS.

On this episode of #TheCut, I had a discussion with Makiah Green, the creator of the online platform @MyPWI, about the national outrage on college campuses about the recent racist remarks from Oklahoma State University fraternity, SAE.

In our discussion, Makiah and I go in depth and offer practical advice on how minority student should deal with racism on college campuses - all semester long. Do you agree?

#TheCut is a brand new podcast focused on urban culture, diversity, faith & hip-hop. The sister show to Temple’s The Corner, #TheCut showcases a millennial opinion on relationships, music, & current events.

In this episode, I go into depth about my thoughts on this weeks hottest topics: #BlackoutFriday, The DOJ Ferguson report, and Kanye West's issues with classicism.

So, please take a listen and let me know what you think in the comments!
